From my experience using FFS, the bass will swim much faster. I've even noticed the tail separation on the fish as well.

Nice! That's a bucket list fish for me.

It was a tough day for everyone, but my little 7lbs was good enough for 3rd

I couldn't agree more. Something to add to this is driving not only driving per the conditions, but also driving per your skill set and experience.

This has always been a struggle for me

Im definitely going to plan ahead to make sure I'm at the next one!

Congratulations!

Nice!
